Brown bears in captivity frequently pace back and forth on the same spot, swing their heads from side-to-side, and engage in other obsessive patterns of behavior that show signs of stress. they behave this way even when their living areas are spacious and include elements similar to those found in their natural habitat. this shows that conditions of captivity are not a satisfactory substitute for the brown bear's natural environment. which of the following statements best expresses the main conclusion of the above argument?

a) brown bears in the wild live longer than those in captivity
b) brown bears walk for miles when in the wild
c) brown bears out in the wild engage in obsessive patterns of behavior.

The correct answer is b) brown bears walk for mile when in the wild  

Explanation:

The argument above speaks to the behavioural profiling of a brown bear in captivity. On the overall, it posits that keeping brown bears in captivity is not good for their mental health and overall well being.

A brown bear is stressed when it is presented with a lifestyle that is completely different from those in the wild.

This argument is clearly stated in the article where it says "This shows that conditions of captivity are not a satisfactory substitute for the brown bear's natural environment". One thing that a brown bear can do in natural habit that it can't do in captivity is to walk for miles.

Cheers!
